This community is housed on an instance run by two trans women, focused on the needs of the queer and gender diverse community.

We allowed 196 here because we were promised the community is queer and trans inclusive.

If you're here it's because you're aggressively supportive of trans folk. Not middle of the ground, not "just asking questions".

If your response to that is, "yes, but..." then this isn't the instance for you, and by extension, this isn't the community for you.

tl;dr - Unambiguous support and inclusion, or fuck off somewhere else.

Edit - I changed the phrase "aggressive support to "unambiguous support", as there was some confusion over the intent behind my previous phrasing.

What does that even mean?

until they get aggressive

This like not being racist, but they shouldn't be so loud with those blm protests?

Not homophobic, but they shouldn't have to make everything gay in the summer?

Maybe in wrong (I hope I am), but that is what your comment sounds like.

I do not support the BLM protests as they had them because they were violent, yet I support black rights. I understand also Martin Luther King Jrs statement not to have violent protests because it makes the protesters out to be the bad guys.

I was at the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) protests in standing rock protesting against the encroachment of native Americans rights. As and I told them also, "it is not good if you break the law, it makes it look like you are the bad guys. Rather stress how much THEY are breaking the law.

I do not support violent protests for the most part, unless life is at stake.

The law got us in the messes. Ya gotta break it. Property destruction and defense from police violence is not violence.

You think lives aren't at stake in those instances? Hmm ok.
